The highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 Direct is set to occur in less than 11 hours. While there has been a flurry of speculation regarding the new hardware, details about the games that will be showcased at the event remain absent. Additionally, Nintendo’s strategy for Nintendo Switch Online post-Direct is shrouded in uncertainty. The subscription service is confirmed to continue for the Switch 2, but further specifics have yet to emerge.
Interestingly, rumors surrounding Nintendo Switch Online continue to circulate. Renowned insider NateTheHate shared insights in a recent podcast episode available on YouTube. He stated, “I’ve heard GameCube will be coming to NSO [Nintendo Switch Online]. It’s just a question of when, not if.” Although NateTheHate does not explicitly confirm whether this will be addressed in the Switch 2 Direct, he expresses that it seems “very likely.”
